Looks like the OCZ Vertex 2 beats it in most but not all of the tests and the
price is probably cheaper than the Crucial RealSSD. I guess if the SATA 6Gbps
connection was working correctly then it would probably more than likely be
quite a bit faster than the OCZ Vertex 2 maybe.

Reading speeds would certainly be faster, writing speeds, no.

I am not impressed!

Seriously lame Sata6 performance and btw AMD AHCI supports TRIM since driver version 1.2.001.263

Yo Wendy-

Thank you SO much for this great review.

Based on it and getting a really good deal - I bought one this morning - new in the box - same model number - 128Gb - for $180 shipped - which I consider quite a deal for a SATA III SSD addition to my new i7-2600 system.
(btw - I'm gonna run mine at SATA III - how can I tell that the Trim feature is running?).

Thanks again.

For those few that are not familiar with the slang expression "bra"-

It is a common English slang term for "brother" probably originating in Hawaii-eh.
